  1. students use the quad because its the center of campus. you need to meet someone and you're on opposite ends of campus? head to the quad. its an open area that gives you the ability to study in a fairly quiet area. you still get to watch people walk by and talk to friends who stop by. it's the best of both worlds. the new area will just be a good quiet place, but if you like to people-watch, then stay in the quad.
  2. if you can make it so there's a good 70 people in there, so the cost is about $12 per person, then i'm totally in. otherwise, i'm gonna have to hope that mr and mrs. siouxman decide they can't go after paying and i'll just HAVE to take their place.
  3. just looking back at the game, there were three goals that markannen had no chance at. two were deflections that just took wierd bounces. recchi's play was awesome, but did anyone notice a d-man on him? stillmans was kinda flukey and happened with under 3 seconds left in the period. while you can't blame markannen for the loss, because obviously edmonton's offense failed to show up. ward made all those saves that markannen just couldn't get to. if you get a chance, watch the highlight of game 1... the overhead view of the crease of the scramble where the penalty shot is called. ward is like a four year old playing goalie... sliding everywhere, looking through six guys to find the shooter. it's incredible.
  4. they will announce it before the july 1st deadline, i'd imagine.
  5. A group of 200 UND alumni have signed a petition against the UND nickname. They say it's derogatory to Native Americans and makes UND look like a white racist school. The petition was sent to the Alumni Assoc, in hopes that Tim O'Keefe would pressure the school to drop the name. I understand that there are people against the nickname, and that's fine. They can have their opinions... but does 200 people not agreeing with the name mean enough to change it? I give their opinion more weight than some average guy off the street... but do 200 people have the same weight as say a petition of thousands of people in favor of the nickname? I have to think that the timing of this was obviously done because the NCAA makes their decision tomorrow. However, I doubt the NCAA will get much info on this prior to tomorrow's meeting. The group should have released it Monday if they were going for true effectiveness and then spent the week doing interviews. That might have gotten the NCAA's attention. Although, you never know with Myles Brand... he could have just been waiting and waiting for something like this to come out.
  6. there were several times where during the last year of intramural hockey there, i wanted to hide out after a game and once they shut off all the lights, start taking out the section of seats i sat in (stood) for every game.
  7. Well, we're four days away from the supposed decision day. This Thursday, the NCAA says it will rule on UND's nickname. You've got to think, or at least hope, that the NCAA realizes that UND will make them look foolish in court. I guess since the NCAA already looks pretty stupid, having it done in court won't be that big of a deal. Thoughts on "Decision Day 2006"
  8. in the ahl playoffs last night: bryan lundbohm had a goal and assist and curtis murphy had an assist as houston beat peoria in ot. colby genoway had two assists for hartford in a 6-5 ot loss to manchester.
  9. heard some good things about the spring game, especially about the offense. on a very nice note, brian hellevang kicked a 51 yarder, which is always a plus. manke was leading the 1st team offense and had a good day, leading the team to a td. belmore also did a good job with the 2nd team. they got the 51 yard fg.
  10. The comm dept. itself is probably the worst in the area... but the internships offered by the school put it at the top in the uppermidwest. especially the broadcasting area.
  11. I find it extremely questionable that you are a Sioux fan. You've made a lot of iffy posts (like the one above), you joined during the past year and there is a user over at GopherPuckLive named "ATLGopher."
  12. with the devils 11 game win streak, zach is definitely getting some good playing time and proving he can handle the nhl. during those 11 games, zach is plus 10, has four goals and three assists and has at least one point in 6 of those games.
  13. Robby Smette, a student at UND (currently taking a year off to be a National Guard Instructor in Georgia) is the first Jackson Hewitt "Soldier of the Year" Nominee. Staff Sgt. Smette Honored I have a vested interest because I'm the one who nominated him, but its always nice to see a North Dakota kid get rewarded for his service. If you knew Robby and his family, you'd agree that he deserves this.
  14. if you get me the beta tapes in fargo, i can put them on to dvd (i also would need some dvd-r's) i could probably get you a deal, and only charge $2-3 per tape. it'd probably take me a week to copy them all over.
  15. if someone can find the video clips of all of the parts of the game talked about on the radio feed, i can easily put it together into a highlight video.
  16. fate.
  17. we're gonna drink so much.
  18. so did they win or not?
  19. sioux win 5-2... final sioux going to the frozen four. i remember earlier this year my dad (siouxman) told me he got frozen four tickets. i was a little excited, but with the way the sioux were playing, i had my doubts. i'm definitely excited it get one of those tickets!!!!
  20. zajac got the pp goal off of lee's wrister.
  21. pp goal lee with a wrister, 4-2
  22. penalty on holy cross for interference pp sioux
  23. wow, holy cross scores on the pp 3-2 sioux everyone, lets quit talking about the frozen four plans...
  24. Half an hour til the drop of the puck. I'm expecting the Sioux to come out and put up 2-3 in the first, with a lot of pressure and high flying. They do not want to give Holy Cross any hope. Kozek, Watkins and Kaip should start tonight, so they can go out and start drilling everything in sight.
